Sound_n_Fury Posted April 28, 2005 Share Posted April 28, 2005 Nehemiah Glover WR | (5'8", 177, 4.5) | TEXAS TECH I can't recall the Bills ever drafting/signing so many small WR/PR types. Is this just a function of taking good, productive "football players" in a down draft year, or might there be some kind of new offense in the works? http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/draft/prospec...ntentId=3484216 http://www.nflfans.com/draft/2005/showplay...hemiah%20Glover Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuckeyeBill Posted April 28, 2005 Share Posted April 28, 2005 Glover will be cut quickly. He's not fast enough and too small. Roscoe will make up for his size with his speed. It may have something to do with steriods. If a guy doesn't weigh 180, he can't possibly be a steroid user Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe thought process is that if they can get off the line, their speed can be utilized to the fullest extent, as once best the five yd zone, no one can touch them. Just a guess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TigerJ Posted April 28, 2005 Share Posted April 28, 2005 This source says he's pretty fast: http://www.nflfans.com/draft/2005/showplay...hemiah%20Glover He was not a combine invitee, so we don't have anything like official numbers. Still, he seems to be a poor man's Roscoe Parrish. Since we have the original, I don't see much chance the poor man's version will be a keeper.

Sound_n_Fury Posted April 28, 2005 Author Share Posted April 28, 2005 Since we have the original, I don't see much chance the poor man's version will be a keeper. 322336[/snapback] I guess that's my point. Since they drafted Parrish so high, I'm surprised they'd sign some other UFDA's in the same mold. I think there's a much more obvious need for a bigger WR to challenge Aiken, who's the only real size option behind EM. If EM develops hammy problems again, we don't have anyone on the roster (other than Aiken) who can line up on the outside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuckincincy Posted April 28, 2005 Share Posted April 28, 2005 Isn't it Lollypop Guild? 322333[/snapback] Yes, you're right. I disrespected union rules. However, Lollipop is spelled with an "i". Since F = 1/2 mass X velocity squared, I'm guessing that sooner or later, some defender will send Roscoe into orbit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to at least one fan on the official Bills fan forum, a guy who is also a Tennessee fan, Brown is fast, has great hands, and has improved his route running. He was overlooked in the draft because he was lost in the glut of RBs at Tennessee his first couple seasons. In his last couple seasons, Tennessee has had awful quarterbacking and went to much more of a ground game. He does have pretty good size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like a clone of Aiken, rather than an upgrade. http://www.nfldraftcountdown.com/playerpro.../tonybrown.html http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/football/...yers/65364.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
